Rocket Man

Marcus Vane built a rocket jet that could carry five hundred people from any city on Earth to any other in under ninety minutes -- and in eighteen months, he made the entire commercial airline industry obsolete.

Ares Aerospace's reusable rocket jets don't just fly. They leave the atmosphere, touch the edge of space, and land on the other side of the world before a traditional flight would have finished boarding. It's the greatest leap in transportation since the jet engine -- and it has made Marcus one of the most powerful, and most hated, men alive.

The legacy airline cartel that once ruled global travel isn't going down without a fight. As Ares Aerospace's rockets empty their terminals and gut their stock prices, a coalition of rival executives moves from lawsuits and bought regulators to something far more direct. A sabotaged test flight. A poisoning at a shareholder gala. A sniper outside the launch facility. And a mole buried somewhere inside Marcus's own company.

With his life and his company on the line, Marcus has to figure out who he can still trust -- before the men who built the old world finish making sure he never gets to build the new one.

ROCKET MAN is a fast-paced commercial thriller about ambition, betrayal, and the price of building something too advanced for the people it leaves behind.
